Statement: My "inside/outside" pots are based on the concept that there
are imaginary objects found in the interior space of the pot which are then pulled
from the inside and placed on the outside where they can be seen. This concept
can be found in a poem by a 15th C. Indian poet named Kabir, who wrote that the
space within the pot is filled with imaginary objects from our universe, including
mountains and rivers, and gold and music and even stars. Kabir sensed that the
most important part of the pot is the interior space.
